Interesting rifle, Sam. By the way, polka-dotted unicorns have been sighted numerous times at Taco Bells in Boulder.

It seems that all of them have been sighted since Colorado legalized pot! 🤙

Schritt is the German word for pace, 2 is then 200 paces. If I remember correctly Arshin is a Russian yard (approx. 71cm)

Beautiful rifle Big Sam

The type 2 is not in fact squeeze bore. The squeeze bore, like the German Panzerbusche, is actually a tapered bore where the projectile is squeezed smaller along the whole length of the barrel. By forcing a .323 projectile down a .312 bore, the bullet is reduced in size as soon as it enters the rifling.

Thanks Big Sam!

Hows bout a 30 roundclip adapter for a mosin 91/30....russian.

I thought both 8mmx50r and 8mmx56r diameters were .329 and that some Steyr and Hungarian m95's were rebarreled for 8mmx57 which is .323. in ww2. P.S. Unicorns of any kind are more common than you think. I would think if a 7.62x54r were fired in a revised chamber the case would seriously fire form and would really look different after it was extracted.

[@windogendoors7566]

8x50r has an odd bullet. To put it simply, it starts off with a diameter of .323 but expands upon firing to .329 to grasp the barrel rifling. It was meant to reduce fowling but wasn't needed.

There is no increase in velocity.
